Take your children to the exhibition!

There are lots of exciting, dotty things going on in the Workshop and ArkDes Studio all summer, and visitors to the exhibition can help the ladybug find her dots, in a game for all the family. Welcome!

Hunting for the lost polka dots – an adventure for the whole family

The ladybug has lost her spots. But the exhibition is full of dots, seeds and patterns, on boats and in infinity rooms, so the ladybug desperately needs your help finding them. Go on an art adventure to find the dots in the exhibition, and get your reward!

Summer holiday events in the Workshop

How about painting dots with ink or tempera? Or cutting out and gluing on dots to make your own personal pattern? Come on a guided tour of the exhibition, followed by a Workshop session on dots and patterns using different materials. We explore the meditative power of dots and spaces in the patterns we allow to grow.

“The Earth is a dot, the moon, the sun, the stars are all made up of dots. You and me, we are dots. Dots are symbols of the world, the cosmos,” says the Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, and paints dots, nets and patterns in infinity.

Creative Workshop in the ArkDes Studio

During normal museum opening hours, black paper and colour pens are available for creative work. Study the dots, lights and seeds in Yayoi Kusama’s fascinating world! Is it possible to keep drawing infinitely, and are those really dots, or are you creating a pattern? Kusama is deeply inspired by nature, and that’s partly why there are so many seeds in her works. Nature’s eternal cycle is also represented in her installations, with the mirrors and lights she uses to create infinite spaces.

Date 11 June –11 September, 2016Time During the museum’s normal opening hours, except Family Sundays at 12.30–15.30. During the school term, the ArkDes Studio is sometimes closed due to private bookings.Place ArkDes Studio, Floor 4Age From 2 and up, in the company of an adultPrice Included in admission (SEK 150 for adults, free admission for children)
